How it works

eBay listings are messy. One seller writes “FF7 Black Label Complete”, the next buries the same game in a five‑game lot — so searching by name misses most of it. We read every listing as it goes up and work out what's actually in it.

  1. We work out which game it is. Even when the seller only writes FF7, calls it Ocarina of Time with no series name, or buries it in a bundle.
  2. We look at the photos. Cartridge, box and manual all showing means it's complete in box. Sealed copies get spotted too.
  3. We compare it to the right price. A loose cart is measured against loose prices, not a blended average, so “under market” actually means something.

Then we tell you straight away. Pick your games, set the condition and the most you'll pay, and alerts reach you in real time the moment a listing matches — you don't have to be watching.

Or look around yourself: Game Search, Real-time Deals and Lot Manager all run on the same matched listings.

Why we built this

We grew up on Atari, Nintendo, and Sega, and like a lot of collectors our age, we eventually started rebuilding the game libraries we had as kids. 8bitedge began as a side project to make that easier for ourselves, and it's built the way we wanted to use it.
